i still remember in the theater how when Roy waves the car (UFO) to pass him at the railroad crossing how the audience nervously gasped when the lights behind him went up. This movie was a masterpiece of subverted expectations. Speilberg played the audience like a fish on a line
masterful. Right up there with Duel.
I didn't realize this was the babe Paul was banging in Slap Shot.@@deanladue5367
@@deanladue5367Don't you mea. Spielberg?
КТО ПОКАЖЕТ ИНОПЛАНЕТНЫЙ КОРАБЛЬ НАЙДЕННЫЙ НА УКРАИНЕ
Yes indide
The first time I saw this movie, I was "WOW" - and after all these years I still get goosebumps watching it! :)
... GOOSE BUMPS??? my stomach STILL freaks out when Roy gets zapped at the stop 🛑 sign 🛑... I had a close encounter of the second kind during the Challengers STS-51 recovery operation back in March/April of '86.
Medication helps in most cases
Nothing since has even come close . . . nothing.
The effects still hold up. This is better than most of what we see today.
Yup. I mean look at Marvel for example. These effects are comparable or better for that matter.
The effects hold up well, but you can't hide the 1970s analog technology portrayed that somewhat dates the film.
Far superior and realistic than CGI
The visual effects were all shot on 65mm!! The visual effects were shot higher resolution than the live action material. Once they were completed they made a one step reduction print to marry it to the 35mm live action so at any time the visual effects are always at a higher resolution than any live action material. The quality is always top notch. When you hire Doug Trumbull you're getting the best.
Nah
Absolutely love the subtle sound cue of the crickets falling silent at 2:28 before the encounter really kicks off
The attention to detail- amazing.
And then at the end they come back and the dog's start barking. Its like nature even takes a breath. Very subtle but it gives the scene immense weight.
That shit is based on real life. Sasqautch experiences are the same. The aliens and UFOs are fallen angels, Sasqautch are nephilim, their offspring, they look like humans in the face with hair giant bodies, they look nothing like apes like t.v shows and movies would have you think.
They were out there looking for traces of Buddy Holly
@@roquefortfiles Google Animal Effects from UFOs. They either go silent, or go nuts. The can sense and or hear the frequencies that we cannot. Our range is only 20Hz to 20 kHz, as humans.
Darkness, light....reflections...Sound, facial expressions, stillness...mayhem. With just a few shreds of not-dialogue through this whole wonderful clip. Masterful
*non-dialogue
All before CGI. This is some of the best special effects ever, in any film.
I've always enjoyed movies with practical effects over CGI
@@brothersgt.grauwolff6716 Doug Trumbul reminding us what you can do with some repurposed Revell kits and some fiber-optic lighting!
Unlike the CGI movies, that was cinematographic art that required serious skill and work.
There's a great behind-the-scenes doc where they show the great lengths they had to go to for these shots.
Soon, this will be our reality.
The whimsical nature of this scene, and the film in general, is one of the things that makes this film a real landmark work in sci-fi. There's a fundamental benevolence at work, even though what happens is still weird and frightening.
I wouldn’t count on undeserved benevolence.
I hardly think that the aliens kidnapping the boy and the military's contamination scenes were, as you put it, 'whimsical'. Neither the shattering of the lights when they were communicating with the 'mother ship'. It was an entirely intense film once it got going
The late actor Roberts Blossom played the older guy by the road side, slowly whistling ("She'll be Coming 'Round the Mountain when She Comes") and later talking about Bigfoot.
He later also played the elderly neighbor (with the snow shovel) in the original "Home Alone". Always loved that scene with him and Macaulay Culkin, in the church, on Xmas Eve.
And don't forget CHRISTINE 😮he sells him the car.
@@ianmangham4570 I think that was the best scene in the whole movie, his dialogue about his brother and the car. character actors. they sure make a movie.
@@Prander5x5 🙏
D'oh! I never realized that! Thanks
"Her name's Christine....."
One of the best movies ever made.
Roy's radio tells people standing middle road
Amazing that this masterpiece is approaching 50 years old!
Hardly
That'll probably go down in history as one of the best filmed UFO scenes in movies ever ❤❤❤❤
I remember years ago the space shuttle un-docking from the international space station. The news reported, down to the minute, when we would see it overhead in Wisconsin. I got my two boys out there in this field by our place to see this. We waited; we watched. Then, my youngest said, "there it is!" Both space craft came directly inline with us over the sky. TWO bright dots, close together, sailing over us like something from a space movie. It was a great memory.
All lies and I’m sorry you were fooled
[ but hardly relevant to this film ]
Yeah thanksgiving 2010. We got the whole family out and saw the shuttle and ISS PASS
@@gerry-p9x
er ... wonderful
thanks for the update
“Hey, that’s Ohio; that’s a quarter!” Gets me every time…😂
It is crazy since it would be over 75 miles north to the Ohio/Indiana Turnpike. That little kid ran over 40 miles from his house.
@@darrellhall6622 Or got picked up by one of the alien drones and dropped off there.
@darrellhall6622 are there mountain vista's in Muncie as are shown here?
@@benrussell-gough1201 Then his mother did.
@@Fan_Made_Videos No but there sort of are in Ohio on 74, but closer to Cincinnati than the border, which is mostly flat with no sharp curves like seen here.
Watched this movie more than 100 times and still can't be tired of it. Because I had the big luck of seeing ufos 3 times in my life. The strangeness is the same as in this Spielberg's classic.
Seeing one is at the top of my bucket list.
25 years as truck driver and some lonely dark roads, but nothing yet.
Always hoping though.
@@festersmith8352 for this to happen you should be watching the skies not the road, and in your case this would be dangerous
@@siegfriedkleinmartins7816He didn’t say he saw the UFOs while DRIVING, Officer Wetblanket.
Ive seen 3 as well, 1 big black triangle early 90s, 1 medium black triangle 2010, 7-8 orange orbs 2012. All very close up, few hundred feet.
@@festersmith8352 You live long enough you get to see some amazing things.
As a kid this movie scared the hell out of me and every time I finished watching it I felt floored. Still my favorite movie ever
This entire sequence is a special effects tour de force.
I’m only just now appreciating the flawlessness of that final wide shot of the flashing clouds and the lights on the landscape below coming back on.
It’s a pure effects shot, but it’s so dramatically effective and seamless that you forget that’s what it is.
It was a miniature landscape projected onto a 130 foot wide front projection screen
We just lost Melinda Dillon in January of this year. Rest in peace lovely Lady!
Because of her role in this film I got a major crush on her. No one like her. RIP lovely Melinda.
The problem is Devil runs the world. He is lier and murderer. This is the reason why deception and violence are everywhere. This is the reason why the whole world is Sodom.
That's why we've got the Gospel about the God's kingdom. Jehovah would put everything in order. The dead will be resurected and we'll meet our beloved ones again! :-)
@@davidholman48 As did MANY of us! It was a sublime and magnetic attraction! One of the few women in movies I ever felt a real attraction to.
Let us not forget, she was everyone's Christmas mom who was out of glue.
I never realized that Roy looks like his mind was being controlled in this part: 3:48
This movie was such a hit in 1977, that it was re-released in 1980 with deleted scenes.
This movie is part of my childhood. You mention this title, and anyone from that era immediatly connects something with it.
We visited Devil's Tower on our honeymoon back in 2015. It was surreal seeing all of the filming locations in real life.
It is amazing how the guard stand and the area around the entrance still look the same as in the movie.
1977 was a magical year. Both Star Wars and Close Encounters opened in theaters that same year. One by Lucas & the other by Spielberg. No one imagined that they would shortly collaborate & give us Raiders of the Lost Ark. And all had music by John Williams. ☺️
Freaking awesome! Saw it in 1977 as a 12 year old boy and still developing and my mindset was just so varied, feeling his awe, and trying to understand the impact of the adults.
After all of these years, I finally noticed the UFO tailing the truck at 1:38.
that's the beacon on top of the truck that you are seeing
Nah, it's the starship tracking him. I think this is when it first spots him. @@lpdog82
@@lpdog82look in the sky there is a light behind the truck. It looks like a star.
@@doc9277 it's the beacon
@@CVilla-ny1er Lol, no not the beacon, it’s high in the sky, far away from the truck, a “star” near the top left corner of the screen… that happens to be slowly following the truck 😨
Actually, if you watch closely, you can spot several of these dots moving across the star field of their own accord throughout the clip 😉
*The* best UFO film in the history of cinema.
i still remember this like it was yesterday, masterful movie making that you never forget , excellent directing from a man with amazing imagination , sci-fi at it's best!
I remember when I went to see it , in the theatres when it first came out, and the audience was so blown away , it was what films should be today, and much has changed over time,but I will never forget this Epic Movie!!!!! Thank you for making my teen years the best,Mr.Spielberg!
Can we talk about Richard Dreyfuss's genius performance?
He looks so young! I did too at one time 🤣
Spielberg would hire Richard for Jaws. too,
He definitely thought it was.
@@briangoldy8784Yes, but this was after Jaws, Spielberg thought he’d do more films with him but they only did one more film after this but they’ve remained friends since then
Believe it or not, Spielberg first approached James Caan about playing Roy Neary. Caan wanted too much $$
Seventies Steven Spielberg is absolute apex modern cinema
I want to go back and live it all over again. The 70’s and 80’s were the best years of my life. We had the best music that had meaning and the best TV shows and specials back then and lived in the last of the best decades in America..it was the party of a life time and we lived it well. We had great shows like, Falcon Crest, Dallas, Knots Landing, Dynasty,The Waltons, Little House on the Prairie, ALF, The Six Million dollar man, The Dukes of Hazard, BJ and the Bear, Air Wolf, Battle Star Galactica! Knight Rider and for the first time ever the motion pictures of, Star Wars, Star Trek, Superman, Spider Man, Close Encounters of the third kind, E.T., Poltergeist, Jaws, Friday the 13th, Aliens, (No not the ones being aloud to just walk into our country right now in 2024), Predator and many more… We also celebrated the bicentennial in the 70’s when the entire country celebrated it from Apr 1, 1975 - Jul 4, 1976. It was like the 4th of July every day. It was fantastic!.…it was such a better time to be alive in this county. We never had the problems that are here today. It was unheard of for kids being shot and men walking around dressed as women. It was the best years of my life, It was the last of America and we were lucky to have experienced it.
It's true you said it all!
You finished??? Now grow up and start facing the challenges of your modern life... Every generation says the same thing.... "Oh remember when"" Deal with what is going on now. As the saying/song goes "the times they are a changing"...
@@Landroverdude101 it's true what you're saying we must face the challenges of the modern times. The comment made above was so factual and true. They hit the nail on the head. Can't help but wonder what will this generation reminisce about?🤔
I agree.
80s overrated
Just incredible filmmaking at its best. When speilberg was god and unstoppable, turning our the best movies of all time
I love those police sirens chasing the UFOs and the fact Roberts Blossom is still whistling with all the commotion❤😂❤ You have to love Spielberg ❤😊❤
One of the best things about Close Encounters is it portrayed aliens as peaceful, and our response as friendly and cooperative (the ending mountain scene). They weren't seen as bloodthirsty monsters with us automatically using military force. If they really have been visiting us over the centuries, and their intentions were evil and controlling, we would have seen the devastating results by now. I, for one, hope to still be alive when the formal revealing comes out.
They were friendly but they still had no concept of consent. I guess that's strictly a human quirk.
They terrified a mother and then abducted her child. Hardly peaceful.
I read a book once where the author speculated that the huge difference in tone between CEot3K and Independence Day was due to THEM being more aware of what the ETs were like and what their objecties were. Weird but, given it was a book about the 'Moon Hoax', what can you expect?
If they have in fact been watching us all throughout our history (which Stargate had suggested was the case), they likely will not be showing themselves any time soon, when as a species, we are more divided and ignorant than ever (we can't even agree on how many genders there are now).......
They're more likely to have terrestrial origins to say the least. While I wouldn't rule out other extraterrestrial entities, my research indicates we're and have been dealing with a breakaway civilization, with a slight possibility of time travelling involved.
I loved Close Encounters of the Third Kind, and this particular part was definitely a favorite! Thanks for the memories.
I saw Close Encounters of The Third Kind as a teenager. This sequence is from the director's cut. Pay attention to some of the stars that are moving across the sky.
Suspect they were additional craft used later in film...all people on road were invited
The (Academy Award winning) night time Cinematograhy throughout this provocative film is sublime, haunting and beautiful to see and to hear and to feel and i experienced this cinematic wonder upon the big silver screen the way it was made to be seen and forever altering the awe struck mind of that blown away 11 year old boy so long ago, along with watching Star Wars both during 1977, wow what a fantastic year for great movies.
A masterpiece that only Speilburg could make.
Still IS a Masterpiece!
And I remember sitting in the cinema and it was so creepy, when the postboxes got so weird. Great movie, music beautiful, when they play to each others.
Imagine aliens with such a sense of humor, that they decided to to go not over, but through the toll gates.
Since it was being observed (by the camera), it was forced into superposition and took all routes simultaneously.
Frankly, I was surprised they were suddenly small enough to fit through a toll gate.
You know the aliens were like, "Watch this!"
My favorite part is that they were polite enough to raise the arms first.
And then flip the lights to Stop. They got that right, ETs are total trolls.
Stephen Spielbergs masterpiece. What a special movie.
Steven Allan Spielberg
Introduced my Japanese wife to Close Encounters and then Jaws. She loathes CG-intensive movies and was blown away.
He's hopelessly lost one moment, then all of a sudden he knows where everything is. I wonder if the aliens made him know it subconsciously?
I agree with all the greatness of this movie, but there is something that always bugged me: the complete irresponsibility of the whistling man at 6:26 acknowledging the boy in the middle of the road and yet, not making the slightest effort to get him out of there even though he knows something is coming.
These people have always seemed strange to me. What are they doing here in the middle of the night? Maybe aliens in disguise.
I don't know.
@@kickeFluck They got telepathic feelings that they should be there, sent by the aliens to make an initial fly-by contact, as part of a social experiment to see if we are ready for direct contact with them. We were not ready in the 1930s and 40s. We are hardly ready now, but our mindset may be finally changing for the better. Look at all the Disclosure happening since 2017.
In his defense. He knew the UFOS were coming in the air. They weren't Driving
He got those long shots of the sky spot on, beautiful beautiful cinema
The sky's are all paintings.
If you're careful, you can see a lot of lights wandering around.
Always a perfect classic.
Just shy of 50 years and the movie still takes my breath away, watched it more than 50 times and it´s just as good every time.
When they see Devils Tower for the first time IRL still gives me goose bumps.
07:50 - I always loved how that one UFO used its spotlight to check out the McDonalds Billboard - as if the aliens were thinking about making a grub stop. LOL.
No, it was basically a shout out to one of the film's sponsors.
There is actually more to that billboard sequence. There is a close up of the UFO's spotlight on the billboard before it moves on.
Back when McDonalds tasted much better than today. The Aliens would have loved it.
@@Beamshipcaptain This scene is actually a bit longer than shown here. There was a close up of the UFO putting its search lights on the McDonald's billboard. Steven took it out.
@@roquefortfiles it's in the special edition from 1981.
This scene beats the arrival of the Mother Ship........but only by a whisker! In the cinema at the time, 300 jaws were on the floor......fingers were frozen over the popcorn....you could have heard a pin drop......time stood still.......and that folks, equates to Steven Spielberg! PS "Hey Earthling!......see you gotta map; mind if we have look at it?"
I remember being 13, it equal parts awe and fear then...pleasure. What a ride, Steven!!! It's like he let's you know in the little joke when the headlight go up instead of around "these guys are okay"
"Fingers frozen over popcorn"
I like it. Great line
The pregnant pause in this scene just before the UFO's round the corner is fabulous. The weird people in the back of the pick up truck all stand like they've seen this before. The old guy whistling "She'll be coming round the mountain". It all sets up an expectation. Dreyfuss is like...."Um wtf?? then he turns and the UFO scout ships round the corner in a dazzling display. In the movie theater this scene was like we were all seeing a UFO. This made quite an impression on me at the time.
Love this - but that cop just drove right off that cliff.
Look up the portage county UFO chase, April 17, 1966. 5 a.m. crazy story that inspired this scene. A pair of portage county (northeast Ohio) deputy sheriff's chased a UFO over 80 miles at up to 103 mph. Actually there with up to 3 chases total that morning with a ton of witnesses including other law enforcement officials...but the air force and project blue book were having none of it lol.
The portage county UFO chase ended not far from me. It was over in Conway PA where the UFO went up headed for the sky with PA-ANG F-102 delta darts chasing it
Things were still top secret with free energy, and antigravity Earthly discoveries and tech and aliens 60 years ago.
Every movie in the 70s had a car chase !
A great movie, sadly underrated nowadays. People born after 1980 don't know about its existence.
The truth can be established by special methods of Open-source intelligence (TEXT MINING). Consider the use of "flying saucers" (UFOs) as a means of delivering atomic weapons. This is very important and relevant, due to the fact that air defense is sharpened against ballistic missiles and aircraft, and UFOs calmly overcome them. The risk threshold has decreased - an atomic war may begin.
It was the phenomenon of such devices in the late 80s that frightened the leadership of the USSR. All these "UFOs over Krasnoyarsk", "UFOs over Perm" + the explosion of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant... Therefore, the leaders of Communist Party went to an honorable surrender...
However, for 30 years, the Russian Federation has been able to bring its electrokinetic flying machines to mind, and now there is panic in the United States - unknown objects are flying over the territory of both NATO and the United States. They have something to be afraid of: such combat UFOs will successfully deliver nuclear bombs to decision-making centers and enemy missile silos, bypassing air defense.
Americans were very scared of russian "flying triangles" and other unidentified phenomena, so the May meeting of the US Congress on UFOs was started in open mode, and then had to be classified. Now the situation is extremely tense, because "flying saucers", "triangles", etc. are very dangerous weapons. So, the threshold for starting an atomic war has dropped sharply, there is a real temptation to strike the first blow without fear of a response...
Born in 98 had the same experiences malvern Arkansas 2007.
Ridiculous overexaggeration!
Born in 87 and i love this film. It's one of Spielberg's best movies
@@The_Str4nger Indeed! It would be great that his new film of 2024 would be at least comparable.
Stops at RxR crossing. Pulls down a physical map. I remember those days.
I wish id been around to see this at Cinema in 77 it would have been epic.
It was hugely epic. The audience was waiting with baited breath to see the UFO's. That slow rumble as they round the corner for the first time then roar off down the highway. (show stopper) Punctuated by the little red whoosh at the end. All with the subwoofers vibrating the whole theatre. In 70mm this truly was magical
@@roquefortfiles This has made the thought of never seeing it in the theatre even worse 😂
Just as epic was when we saw STAR WARS May 25th, 1977, in Manhattan at Lowes 59th street. It blew us into the back of the theatre. We waited in line for two hours. It was epic. Life-changing. Thanks Lucas and Spielberg!
Just pricelessly spectacular....
An oldie but GOODIE!!!!! Remember my parents taking us to the theatre to see this when we were kids :)
Same here!
Ditto...
had to watch it on video tape in 1985 cause I was born in 77 there was a running joke that I was an alien baby 😂
I was 21 then. Star Wars the same year!! what a year for sci fi lovers!!
Yeah, the UFO police chase in Ohio was based on real events.
A couple years ago, my brother and I were talking to a former neighbor on Skype who lived in Stow, Ohio. She said that her son and another neighbor kid were in the back yard and witnessed a UFO hovering behind Fishcreek Elementary School in the summer of 1974. Both kids became frightened when the UFO shot two beams of light down into the ground.
We called her son and he confirmed the UFO story. He said the UFO was a bright silver disk and made absolutely no noise.
I became convinced that there must be a record of this UFO and, sure enough, somebody near Kent, Ohio had spotted a silver disk UFO that made no noise in August 1974. Fishcreek Elementary is not far from Kent.
Field-effect propulsion like TT Brown, and Searl disks are also silent. Extreme high Voltage, almost no Amperage. Finally coming out for all to see, thank God for the Internet!
Super Mega Excellent
This movie is pretty accurate about our mysteries watchers, the light around their crafts are so bright sometimes it blocks our view of the craft itself.
We just can't say this scene is the best in the movie ! Because all the movie is so awesome !
Спилберг - гений!!! Актёры - молодцы!!! Классика кинофантастики!!!!
7:52 Love the third ship flashing an arrow to the right to let their confused know which way to go
I watched this movie when I was a kid and it scared me, but the ending always left me floored. I revisited it recently and it’s become my new favorite movie
I really wish Id gotten to see this in theaters in 77. But I was too young. I was just 8. I didn't see the first Star Wars either. I bet this was awesome with the sound and music and lights and huge screen. Its sad that movie theaters today cant show older movies as reruns in theaters today as they did as new back then. Id go and pay for it.
You know I always thought the cop who flew off the road had died, but looking at the clip now it looks like he probably survived. Though he was likely injured.
@@deanladue5367 THAT scene should have stayed in. Is it on a directors cut or something?
I remember that scene I used to have the extended director's cut but it disappeared one day 😢
According to the comic book adaptation, he survived.
One of the best SF films there was/is, I find!
I love this film very much!
It's a pitty that this SF RUclips channel can NOT show us the whole film of this!
But thanks for showing us this cool scene of that film!!!! 🤩👍🛸👽
I remember seeing this in the theater in 1977 I think. It was so thrilling to watch on the big screen in stereo sound vibrating off the walls in the movie house. You don't see movies that exciting anymore. The magic is gone.
It is difficult to overstate just how gripping this sequence - and in fact the entire film - was in the theater. I saw it by myself in the theater during its first run and I absolutely could not shut up about it when my mom picked me up afterwards.
I was hoping there would be a sequel. This movie is a classic.
No sequel for perfection.
Best Chase scene ever in the film
even more interesting is the fact that it was based on a real police pursuit in the early 60s, the officers that were involved reported the chase and then were fired without explanation
I grew up in Colorado,and this movie is so very special to me.
Because at the time ,there were things like what you see going on at the time...
For me, it was Barry waking up to his toys and such going nuts.
He gets up and goes to the stairs,and this spotlight waves him down the stairs through the window.
Then,it was him coming into the kitchen and seeing he wasn't alone.
His look of innocent wonder and no fear was riveting and both terrifying at the same time to me.
It was, because they were right there,and they could have taken him then.
Then they led him from the house and I was very scared for him,lol...
But I was so into the movie after that,I couldnt look away one moment.
You have to be somebody who's been through something similar to understand.
One of the best scenes of all time in any film!! Still one of my favorite movies of all time! Got goosebumps again rewatching this... Bought my tickets for the 2024 re-release! Can't wait ❤
I like that Spielberg put a lot of meaningful Easter eggs in his movies.
For example:
The sign is swinging back and forth and then everything stops. Subconsciously we read the bottom half of the sign and it says, "Cross Roads"
And this is where the character is at; he is at a cross road.
Everything that he previously thought was normal and true has been turned on its head. Now he has to make sense of information that he's never seen before in the natural world.

One of the best if not the best sci-fi movies ever made.
Sci-FACT!
@@Beamshipcaptain Sci-fi
@@danshearer7627 Anything you read or see in sci fi has already happened, and we already can do. As proof, loot at NASA'S new Antigravity warp drives, and the rise of A.I., and android robots.
the idea that Alien craft can mess with our electronics against our will always scared me about this film as a kid but as I get older it's great cinema plus those scenes are based on documented encounters, victims reported their cars cutting out or their appliances frying.
And in the case of our military bases, they turned some of our ICBMs offline. Scary.
yes, afterall Dr J Allen Hynek was Spielbergs Consultant on UFOs.
@@MasterJediDude They just don't want us to destroy ourselves, as has happened to other humans elsewhere in the Universe. Give Peace a chance!
@@martinmorelos4753 He was also in a scene with the big mothership at the end of the movie. RIP J. Allen Hynek!
@@Beamshipcaptain no, whatever they are, they’ve proven to be malevolent so far. Abductions being the biggest indicator so far.
Agreed! They just make movies like this anymore. God I miss the 70’s 🥺😢
Love the curved road hill and fence setting.
These are the best scenes full of great scenes from start to finish!
Grin, from ear to ear. Thanks for sharing.
You bet! Such a great movie!
I bet, if I asked my father about it, he would remember not only the film, but this chase scene, too. And, invariably, he'd make some remark about the little red UFO and how it set the toll booth alarm bell off.
Dad is not an SF fan, you see, but when I was a child, our family sat down to watch this film which was being shown on TV, one weekend afternoon. A nice way to fill an otherwise empty afternoon, but such was the power of this film that it kept our family mesmerised, and left some indelible images in our minds, just as the aliens left images if the Devil's Tower in the minds of those they encountered. In fact, it was my first encounter with said landmark and I was delighted to learn later that it was real.
In this day and age of CGI, we are bombarded with breath-taking films, but very few of them have the kind of impact as this one did. The 'Avatar' franchise and the 'Jurassic Park/World' may do, but they've had time to build on their respective universes. 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind' might seem dated and rather sparse to modern movie-goers, but without it and its contemporaries, we might not have the rich film world we do today.
The best movie ever made!!! 1977!! I still love this movie!! I was 9 years old in 1977.
Scene at the railroad crossing
Roy: "Go around, go around."
Aliens: "Tee hee...Let's mess with this guy."
It's like Spielberg is letting you know it's going to be okay...they're funny. i appreciated that as a kid in the theatre.
This film never ages
When the crickets stop chirping 😮
My first favorite movie as a kid! I recorded this off TV (on Beta) and would watch it over and over again! I eventually wore out the tape. I eventually got the 3 disc version (theatrical, extended and director's cut) on DVD, and last year I upgraded to Blu-ray (all 3 versions on one disc).
One of Spielbergs best films. He clearly had real insight to ufo phenomenon when making this movie.
H 7.25 is waiting for his father out from the Space 😂😂😂😂

Saw it in 78’ as a 10 year old and STILL it’s my all time favorite movie 🛸👽

Yes, very sad and very recent.
When I hear that open music. ... .chills every time.....i was 8 and at the cinema when I watched it....couldn't sleep for months
Fun fact: the young boy actor (who’s grown up and married now and is retired) still gets fan-mail!
He later got a leading role in "The Sheriff and the Satellite Kid".
I was a very yong kid then, when I saw this movie in thr theatre. Made a very deep impression on my young mind, even more later when we (my entire family) saw 3 big orbs in a triangular pattern slowly traversing a late Sunday night sky (which later was officially explained as rocket debris during re-entry).
When I watched this in the theaters Star Wars was nothing to me. I was into UFO as a kid and this movie to a lot of the actual encounters from real life situations.
Best ever. Would be kinda cool to have Spielberg and George Lucas crafting either a modern version or sequel
同じような現象を体験しました。第二種接近遭遇まで体験してます。世界中で似たような共通体験者が増えてます。
No other sci fi movie comes close to this.
Loved the scene where the ship passed over him totally silent. all the surface details. Afterwards I used to have dreams about multiple alien ships crossing the night sky like that and fighter jets taking off after them. maybe after watching this I will have the dream again.
Classic
One of those movies I want to see the first time again.
Great movie...👍
Wow! Aliens DO have a sense of humor! They absolutely 🤬 with humans & UFO hunters! 🤣
